Have to agree... good food but THE WORST SERVICE know to man. whom ever manages this place should be fired. Our whole table wanted more... but the staff was nowhere to be found... and the small lager... at the bar cast me more than at home (chgo). AVOID! Applebee's had more attentive service than this.
Worst Service Know to Man – I went in to treat the family after a great and wonderful day. Waited about 15 minutes which was fine. Waitress came over about 10 minutes after we were seated. Later about 20 minutes minutes asked if we had any questions and then disappeared for 30 minutes. I offered to pay at the fron for my drinks. The manager didn't even want to face us and apologize. He sent the girl at the front to do that. I thought that was in poor taste. Went across the street and had a T-bone at Fiesta Ranchera. Tasted great and was waited on by three people. Cost was a fourth of the poor service place. Never again!
Great Steaks! – Love this restaurant. Great selection of hand cut steaks. The meats are always fresh.
We love to go with a group of friends and stand around the grill cooking and chatting. Always grill yourself a thick piece of garlic bread while you are waiting for your steak.
Good selection of brews.
The service is always great. No more money than any other steak house.
A lot of fun!
Not the big city.. – ..but what do you expect in Bloomington? The food was good, since you get to choose it yourself. However, it is pricey, and the service was o-kay. Ambience was, well, o-kay. So I guess it was 'o-kay' in general. Fun to cook your own good, though, I guess (I'm an o-kay cook)
Great Steaks & Fun! – You can't beat a steak from Alexanders! It's a total experience to stand around the giant grill and fire up the steaks! I would recommend this to any out of town guest!

HARRISONBURG, Va., Feb.13, 2013 – Coming off a season that saw them win 30 games and finish second in the Colonial Athletic Association, the James Madison softball team is set to kick off its 2013 campaign on Friday in Charleston, S.C. The Dukes are scheduled to play five games in three days in the College of Charleston Cougar Classic, beginning Friday at 10 a.m. against Akron.
JMU returns seven starters from last year's team that finished 30-26 overall and 15-5 in the CAA. Picked to finish second in the CAA Coaches' Preseason Poll, the Dukes are led by senior outfielder Jasmine Butler (Winter Garden, Fla./West Orange). Butler stole a career-high 21 bases, the second highest total in school history, while hitting .309 and scoring 33 runs. She currently holds the highest average mark in JMU history, hitting at a .343 clip for her career.
Joining Butler in the outfield is All-CAA First Team and All-Rookie outfielder Morgan Heath (Yorktown, Va./Grafton). Last season, Heath led the team in batting average, hitting .355 on 65 hits and added 33 runs scored, 14 RBIs and two home runs. Juniors Anna Klumpp (Culpeper, Va./Eastern View) and Cassidy Clayton (Acton, Mass./Acton Boxborough) as well as sophomore Haley Widner (Columbus, Ohio/Bishop Ready) will also see action in the Dukes outfield.
The infield is anchored by junior third baseman Caitlin Sandy (Fayetteville, N.C./Jack Britt) who started all 55 games at third base for Madison. Sandy earned Second Team All-CAA honors after hitting .293 with 26 runs scored and 14 RBIs. Senior Haley Johnson (Ashburn, Va./ Broad Run) made 54 starts at first base and finished as one of the toughest players in the country to strikeout, averaging one every 31 at-bats. The Dukes' infield is rounded out by senior catcher Megan Shinaberry (Davie, Fla./McCarthy).
Sophomore Sarah Mooney (Huntersville, N.C./North Mecklenburg) contributed both at the plate and in the circle for JMU, earning Second Team All-Region, Second Team All-CAA and CAA All-Rookie honors as a pitcher/designated player. She hit .322 with 29 RBIs and her nine home runs were second most by a freshman in program history. In the circle, Mooney finished 8-10 with a 3.56 ERA adding seven complete games and two shutouts in 110 innings pitched.
Heather Kiefer (Potomac Falls, Va./Potomac Falls) returns for her sophomore campaign after being named First Team All-CAA, CAA Rookie of the Year, and All-Rookie selection in 2012. Kiefer led the Dukes pitching staff with a 14-6 record, including 15 complete games and 5 shutouts, posting a 1.96 ERA in 143 innings pitched. The young pitching staff will also look for contributions from sophomores Reba DePriest (Apache Junction, Ariz./Skyline) and Miranda Kemp (Haymarket, Va./Battlefield (Iowa State)), as well as newcomer Jailyn Ford (Hot Springs, Va./Bath County). Junior right-hander Brittany Jeans (Camano Island, Wash./Stanwood) is the only returning pitcher with more than one year experience.
JMU is 6-5 all-time in its season-openers and 21-23 overall on the opening weekend of the season.
The Zips kicked off the 2013 season with a 2-2 record at the Georgia Southern Tournament in Statesboro, Ga. After opening the weekend with a 9-2 win over Tennessee Tech, the Zips fell to Georgia Southern and Tennessee Tech. Akron concluded the weekend with a late-inning rally to capture a 4-2 win over St. John's (N.Y).
Sophomore Rachael Ratcliffe led the Zips with seven RBIs over the weekend, including her first home run of the season against Georgia Southern. As a freshman Ratcliffe finished second on the team with 15 multi-hit games and nine home runs. Senior Alissa Birkhimer hit .385 and scored three runs, while sophomore OF Iesha Mountain added three steals.
In the circle, freshman Erin Seiler earned MAC East Pitcher of the Week honors after starting her collegiate career with two complete game victories. Seiler gave up six runs on 18 hits and struck out 15, finishing with a 2.29 ERA.
Head coach Julie Jones is in her seventh season with the Zips and holds a 142-176-1 record.
The Cougars were set to open their season on Wednesday, but had their doubleheader washed out. They were picked to finish third in the SoCon Coaches' Poll after going 37-23 overall and 14-9 in conference a year ago.
Second baseman Ashton Jarrett returns after hitting .342 with 34 runs scored and 13 steals a year ago. Outfielder Carly Corthell is also back after stealing 21 bases and hitting .302. Third baseman Kelsey Hodgson is the top returning power bat after hitting 11 homers in 2012.
Stephanie Saylors returns for her senior campaign in the circle after going 16-13 with a 1.84 ERA in 186 2/3 innings pitched. She struck out 170 and walked just 40 in 37 appearances. Hope Klicker added a 19-9 record and a 2.16 ERA in 161 2/3 innings pitched.
Head Coach Shelly Hoerner enters her eighth season with Charleston with a 217-186 record. In her 15 year coaching career, Hoerner is 422-306 (.580) overall.
The Buccaneers season opened at the Plainsmen Invitational in Auburn, Ala. They dropped all four games, losing to Auburn, Kent State, Austin Peay and Army to start the season 0-4.
Freshman Sam Carpenter paced the Buccaneers offensively, hitting two home runs versus Kent State and finishing the weekend hitting .333 with four RBI and 3 runs.
In the circle, freshman Samantha Harrell gave up 13 runs but only five earned in two starts, finishing the weekend 0-2 with a 2.76 ERA. The first-year hurler struck out ten and walked seven in 12 2/3 innings pitched.
Brad Irwin is in his third season as East Tennessee State head coach with a 26-72 record.
The Tigers season got underway at the Pirate Classic in Greenville, N.C. They finished 4-1, recording a pair of victories against Cleveland State and wins against Ohio and Rider. In their final game of the weekend, the Tigers fell to East Carolina, 10-2.
Senior Bina Abbot earned CAA Co-Player of the Week accolades after hitting .429 with seven RBIs and a home run in her first five games of the season. Junior Delanie Dunham also got off to a hot start, hitting .500 with a homerun, four RBIs and six runs.
In the circle, three Tigers pitchers earned starts. Freshman Ambar Hickman pitched a shutout in her second career start and finished the weekend with a 2.10 ERA and seven strikeouts. Senior Katie Lingmai, who pitched 192 2/3 innings last season, ended the weekend 1-1 with a 5.56 ERA, 12 strikeouts and a complete game in two starts.
Head coach Lisa Costello is in her 18th season with the Tigers, holding a career record of 502-440-2. She won her 500th career game over the weekend in a 7-5 victory over Ohio.
The Orange are playing their first games of the season this weekend. Coming off a 43-6 record, including a 17-5 finish in Big East play, the Orange look to improve on a season that ended with an appearance in last year's NCAA Regional Championship game. They were picked to finish fifth in the Big East preseason poll.
Senior Veronica Grant returns in 2013 after earning First Team All-Big East honors last season. She ended 2012 with a .263 batting average, posting 30 hits, two home runs and 17 runs.
Pitcher Stacy Kuwik returns for her senior season after posting a 14-3 record with a 1.60 ERA and 140 strikeouts in 2012. The Orange graduated the Big East's all-time leader in strikeouts and NFCA third team All-American, Jenna Caira.
Head coach Leigh Ross enters her seventh season with the Orange holding a 91-46 record. In 15 seasons she has compiled a 429-337-2 record as head coach for Syracuse and Bowling Green.

This decision came from the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act (FALCPA) passed in 2006.

Why Employee Engagement Still Matters In The Retail Sector
People are migrating away from the traditional brick and mortar retail stores in the 21st century, preferring to shop online and using their mobile devices rather than visit physical storefronts. This is most prevalent in the specialty hard goods. However, shoppers still enjoy the social and entertainment aspects that retail provides, as well as with soft goods shoppers tend to still want to touch and size in person. As the percentage of online purchases continues to grow beyond recent 10% figures, in the stores we are seeing a shift in labor.
5 Key Trends Currently Afoot In Employee Recognition
Continued employee engagement is one of the keys to human capital management for HR leaders at large corporations. When people work for big businesses, they sometimes find themselves too caught up in the rigmarole of their daily operations, and they lose sight of their employers' vision and their own individual career goals.
The Retail Paradox: Save Money, Or Spend It On Customer Service?
It's commonplace for companies to look to improve their workforce management strategies in an effort to strengthen their customer service initiatives – especially in the retail sector. Good service is the primary reason that successful merchants complete sales, and in a competitive sales environment, businesses seek to differentiate themselves from their competitors by providing superior consumer care.
4 Ways HR Is Becoming Data-Conscious In Managing Human Capital
Employers everywhere, large and small, are looking to do more with business intelligence to measure the performance of their workers. Doing so can make them more efficient about who they hire, how they put people to work and what strategies they use for employee retention.
What Does The Future Hold For HR Technology?
As technology rapidly improves across the world, more business are looking to upgrade the solutions they use on a daily basis. Among other developments, this means they want to use more cloud computing solutions for storing their data, mobile devices for accessing it on the go and data analysis tools for improving their outlook on business intelligence.
Pricing And Efficiency — Key To This Grocer's Bottom Line
Consistent pricing is key to customer satisfaction and sales, and controlling this efficiently can be a real challenge for grocers like Geissler's, who stock thousands of SKUs.

September 23, 2013
Today marks the first full day of fall. Our mornings are cooler and the daylight hours are getting shorter but the season isn't the only thing changing. The leaves are also starting to show signs of changing color.
Jack Kauffman, Forester at Virginia Department of Forestry, said, "The first ones to change will be the yellow poplar or tulip popular which will turn yellow."
This summer, there was plenty of rain for the trees to stay green and not prematurely change color. However, the summer's weather doesn't have much to do with how colorful the fall leaves will be. It all comes down to September's weather to determine how brightly colored October's leaves will be.
Kauffman said, "Sunshiney days where the trees are producing a lot of sugars and then cool, crisp nights above freezing will produce brilliant colors."
So far this month, the weather has been right on track for a vivid fall. In the next few weeks, the green mountains will turn shades of reds, yellows, and oranges. The peak of our fall foliage season here in Central Virginia typically occurs in mid October.
Each year, the fall foliage makes Central Virginia a popular tourist destination.
Lynn Graves, Owner of Graves Mountain Lodge and Orchard, said, "We have our Apple Harvest Festival three weekends in October. If the weather's good, we'll have about 10,000 people each day. People come for hay rides, to pick apples and hopefully see fall colors."
The leaves also make it difficult to find a place to stay in the mountains for fall foliage getaways, unless you planned way ahead of time.
Graves said, "Our rooms book from year to year. It fills up pretty quickly."
Kauffman said, "It's a wonderful time of year for those people to come out and enjoy and experience the outdoors."
Although the peak leaf season occurs in mid October, don't be surprised if you start seeing more and more colorful trees in the next couple of weeks.

Tawakkul (Trusting) in AllaahPosted by daraGharbi under Allaah | Tags: abdur-rahman as-sa'di, beautiful, Khutbah, reliance, tawakkul, trust, trusting in Allah |
Leave a Comment
~ Regarding tawakkul, Shaykh As-Sa'di, ever beautifully says:
The Messenger of Allaah (salallaahu 'alayhe wasallam) said:
"If you truly trust in Allaah as you should trust in Him, He will provide you with sustenance, just as He does to birds: they go out in the morning with empty stomachs and come back in the evening with full stomachs."
The Messenger of Allaah (salallaahu 'alayhe wasallam) described those who trust in Allaah as having two qualities: they seek means and ways of earning their livelihood and have great trust in He Who has full control of all means and ways of provision. Those who possess only one or none of these qualities will acquire failure and utter loss. In contrast, those who seek the legal and lawful ways of earning their sustenance, trust in Allaah and appreciate His bounties whenever they earn them, all the while observing patience during times of hardship and distress, will acquire success and win what they need and covet.
How can those who acknowledge that they are in need of their Lord in all conditions and situations, not trust in Him? How can those who acknowledge that they are helpless and feeble without the help of their Lord, ever stop seeking His help or invoking Him for relief? How can those who are certain that ownership of all affairs rests in Allaah's Hands, not ask Him for their various needs? How can those who have knowledge of Allaah's Richness and Most Generous Essence, refrain from seeking His Kindness in all of their matters? How can those who are certain of Allaah's Mercy, that He is more merciful with His slaves than the mother with her own child, not trust His Judgment? How can those who know that Allaah is Most Wise in all decisions, not feel assured and pleased with all that He decides and destines for them?
O slave of Allaah, who seeks the ways and means of goodness, you will only earn all that is good and righteous by trusting in Allaah and relying on Him for every need. O you who strives hard against his own self to resist the lures of sin and disobedience, know that you will repel sin only through your trust and reliance on He Who has perfect knowledge of the Unseen. Surely, he who relies on Allaah, He will suffice Him. He who asks Allaah for help and adheres to His obedience, He will correct the affairs of his life and religion for him. As for he who likes himself and lets his heart abandon the Lord, the Most Honored, he will only acquire failure and lose this life and the Hereafter.
How many are they, who seem weak and unable to earn their benefit, but are in fact strong on account of their trust and reliance on Allaah, and so Allaah helps them acquire their needs? How many are they, who seem strong and rely on this fact alone, but their strength deceived and departed them when they most needed it. Surely, the help and success that Allaah grants is the only reserve and resource of supply for the faithful believers. There is no success, or happiness, except by worshipping Allaah, seeking His help and trusting in Him. Verily, Allaah is the only deity worthy of worship and how excellent He is as a Helper:
"Our Lord! In You (Alone) we put our trust, and to You (Alone) we turn in repentance, and to You (Alone) is (our) final Return." [60:4]
"And so many a moving (living) creature carries not its own provision! Allaah provides for it and for you. And He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower." [29:60]
May Allaah direct us all to the blessings of the Glorious Qur'aan and benefit us all in whatever is in it of the Aayat and Wise Dhikr. I say this and ask Allaah the Great, the Most Honored for forgiveness for me, you, and all Muslims for every sin, so invoke Him for forgiveness, for He is the Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.

He has been likened to Gianfranco Zola by Chelsea fans, but Juan Mata insists he has plenty to do at Stamford Bridge before he is mentioned in the same breath as the Italian.
The Spanish midfielder took part in a Twitter Q&A with @chelseafc recently, where he told us Zola 'was a really good, important player in Chelsea's history, but I've got a lot of things to do here at Chelsea.'
Keenly nodding in appreciation at the queries that had been submitted using the appropriate #MataQandA hashtag, Mata provided an insight into his life achievements, his ambitions, and his enjoyment of playing alongside three Spanish team-mates here at Chelsea.
No stranger to lifting trophies, he is the proud owner of Champions League and FA Cup medals, and has lifted the World Cup and European Championships with Spain. Not only that, the playmaker won the prestigious Player of the Year award last season - in his first season playing for the club, and @RamblinJamblin was keen to know how it felt.
'It was a great surprise for me, as it was my first season with Chelsea,' he responded. 'It was great for me; I know Ruud Gullit was the last to also win it in his first season here.'
Responding to @fan_chelseafc, who asked how having three other Spanish players in the team has helped, he said: 'We're close friends; it's good to have others here who speak your language.' Though one friend in particular is concerned with the state of Mata's locker - 'It is messy, not quite as bad as Torres says, but it is messy! I'll post a picture of it one day!'
With new signings still settling, @kcuk87 wondered how Mata is enjoying life alongside Eden Hazard and Oscar. 'I really like playing with them - they've got great quality, skills and I like this kind of football,' he said. 'They've settled into the Premier League really well, I wasn't surprised, I think players with quality settle down quicker.'
Outside of football, Mata enjoys seeing the sights of London, and keeping fans up-to-date on his travels via his weekly blog posts, something he thinks 'is good to share. My blog posts discuss my feelings about everything, not just about football. For example, I've just finished the second season of Homeland, it is brilliant!'
As the son of a former pro, there is one obvious influence on his career, though Mata also picked out an Argentine international formerly with Valencia as an idol.
'My dad played football too, and I remember going with him to the training ground,' he said, 'but I really liked to watch Pablo Aimar growing up - I played against him though last season, and couldn't speak to him because he nutmegged me! I was too embarrassed.'
Looking ahead, there is one major challenge that Mata would like to accomplish with the Blues.
'I really want to win the Premier League, even though we know it's difficult,' he said, 'but playing here at Chelsea every season you've got the opportunity to win it.'

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Car-tech fans are going to see more HUDs in the future, and we're not talking Paul Newman movies or federal agencies. HUD is short for heads-up or head-up display, a device that projects information onto the windshield of a car.
A smattering of mostly high-end cars feature integrated HUD, but IHS Automotive predicts that its adoption will increase from two per cent of automobiles in 2012 to nine percent by 2020. Third-party options are less common. Pioneer just announced an HUD that's currently available just in Japan, but it costs US$3400. Garmin announced its own third-party version earlier this week. Called "HUD", it has a much more digestible list price of US$130.
Garmin's HUD is a display device that obtains data through your Bluetooth-connected smartphone (with data plan, of course). It can project navigation and traffic data onto its own reflector lens, or onto a transparent film that you stick to your windshield. The package includes both choices.
According to Garmin, the display can adjust its brightness automatically to remain visible in varying light conditions, an issue with some HUDs.
The connected smartphone needs to be running Garmin's StreetPilot app for iPhone or its Navigon app for Android, iPhone, and Windows Phone 8. The apps cost extra, starting at US$30 for a regional version of Navigon.
Driver distraction is a fact of life these days, as cars are increasingly seen as yet another mobile device needing access to real-time information. HUDs are theoretically a less distracting option than integrated or third-party displays located in the center dashboard area, though they're still taking at least a little attention away from the immediate task of driving. Garmin's HUD offers an inexpensive way to upgrade an older car to this new technology. As with any in-car display, use it carefully.
First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Sharon G. Kujawa, Ph.D.
Associate Professor, Otology & Laryngology, Harvard Medical School
Director, Department of Audiology, Mass. Eye and Ear
Noise-induced and age-related hearing losses (NIHL, AHL) are widespread health problems that will continue to increase as our society ages. They are the most common forms of acquired sensorineural hearing loss that we see in our adult patients, often co-existing in the same ears, and they are a primary focus of our research activities. We study how susceptibility to these forms of hearing loss is shaped by genetic background, how noise exposure and age interact to influence auditory functional and neurodegenerative outcomes, and how noise exposed/aging ears can be manipulated pharmacologically to reveal underlying mechanisms or for treatment or prevention. Our collaborators in these studies are geneticists, pharmacologists, physiologists, public health researchers, clinicians, and engineers. Our efforts are directed toward understanding fundamental principles underlying these common forms of hearing loss and facilitating the transfer of this information to better-informed clinical care. One area of current focus in the lab is the aging of noise-exposed ears:
Age-Noise Interactions. Understanding the long-term consequences of noise exposure is critical to public health. The prevailing view is that a noise-induced insult has no ongoing, progressive influences on auditory function: after an acute period of recovery, sensitivity and underlying injury stabilize and subsequent alterations in function are presumed related to other causes, for example aging. Moreover, ears without permanent threshold shifts (PTSs) after noise are thought to be fully recovered from the insult. Our work suggests that these views require substantial revision. We have demonstrated that noise exposure can result in delayed, but dramatic loss of cochlear afferent neurons - even after an exposure in which the noise-induced threshold shift is completely reversible. Since these afferent neurons to inner hair cells (IHCs) constitute 95% of the cochlear nerve, their dysfunction/loss must have important consequences for hearing, even if threshold sensitivity recovers.

Hey ladies !!!! Sorry for the day of silence.... work was sooo busy, and then had a rare dinner with old friends! So nice, but I got home late and only had 3.5 hours of sleep! Yuk, not good for me.
Today was busy but on program!!! I feel like this lifestyle is just "par for the course" now!
My friends thought I looked like I lost a lot more than 10 ponds! It felt good that they noticed!
Mary- you made be laugh... When you said he could bend me over his knee... I told him he should!!! Course, that would be a whole nother story!!! LOL. I really am glad that my daughters story of drugs is behind us.... I feel good about getting myself back together!
My migraines are not really migraines. It's just easier to say that. I have too much cerebral spinal
Fluid... Too much pressure which causes excruciating pain. I have meds for that, but I cannot lay flat, only at an angle. Being in a hotel for 9 days kills me. The week after I have to mess with my meds before things calm down and the pressure reduces.
What are you studying in school and what do you do for a living?
LacyJ! Gals you are keeping up and workin hard! Talk to you soon!!!
So glad you enjoyed dinner with your old friends, Shellbells! You must look awesome where they saw more than what the scale says - BOO-YAAA!!! It might have been worth the loss of sleep just to hear that.
You mean to tell me that you told Tom that he could spank you, and he didn't?!?! What is wrong with that boy? Tell him I am waiting for a hot story!
So can't they put a shunt in to take care of the CSF problem? That's awful. When you are in a hotel, would an ironing board propped at an angle on something be good enough to keep you from getting those awful headaches? Surely the hotel would have something to prop it up with, or maybe you could put it on the bed frame. Just be careful you don't fall off!
I am a college professor of psychology at Missouri State University. I specialize in successful aging and age-related disorders. But you are right - the studying and learning never stops in order to keep up!
Wow, I am having such an easy time keeping with the food part of the program, but struggling to do the exercise. I don't know what to do to put a fire under my butt.
Warm fuzzies,
Hi Guys!!
Hi guys, havent checked in for a couple of days....I am having severe "Migraines which has been sort of unbearable. Right now I feel all out of whack. Today, i didnt work out and it was my free day (changed from Sundays). I slept almost all day and I feel a bit better, made a good Persian dinner, Lamb kabob's with sour Cherry rice and roasted tomatoes. It's my FAVORITE meal....gave the leftovers to my daughter so it wont be in my house !!
My total weight loss is now 9 lbs and I am thirlled.....I will measure inches again at 8 weeks.
I intend to work out tomorrow - I'll let you know how it goes.
I have a funny story about a mango:
Side note: My kitchen is sort of open to my family room. If I stand at my sink I am facing the family room so that if anyone walks in, they can see into the kitchen and certainly see who is at the sink.
SOOO, the other day I had just cut a mango with my mango cutting tool (if you dont have one you need to get one). When the mango is peeled and cut, there are two halves and the cetner seed. But there is still fruit attached to the seed. (I am STILL Having mango cravings) A mango see is about 3 inches by 2 inches. Fairly long and flat. I am standing at my sink, trying to get all the fruit off the seed. YES, I had the seed practically shoved all the way in my mouth when I open my eyes and looked up, there was my husband who had just walked in from work (I didnt hear him and had no idea he was there). He was watching me eat this mango off the seed....embarrassed...I take the seed out of my mouth and throw it out.. Of course he had some VERY interestng things to say about it....and we have been laughing about it ever since. He says "that was the sexiest thing Iven seen in a long time" - UMMM wow...I am not sure how to feel about it.....LOL
I cant help it. I AM STILL having a love affair with the Mango this week....my husband is going to have to live with it..LOL
OK...hope your Sunday is good ladies!
NINE POUNDS, SHELLBELLS - WOOT WOOT!!! Congratulations!
That's just awful that you are having another bad bout with the headaches. I can't imagine having to live with that all the time. Is there something other than laying flat that triggers them? Why no shunt?
That is a great story! Tom will never look at a mango the same way again. Rub mango juice on him and let the sparks fly!
Are the roasted tomatoes part of the sour cherry rice dish? What part of that meal can't you have on BFL?
Still haven't been able to force myself back to exercise. So frustrating.
Keep up the inspiring work, girl!
Good Morning Ladies,
Shellbells I am still laughing over the mango story and ...... I can see where the mango seed might add a little "flava" to the evening - HA! I might try that myself - first I need the mango and then I need the man (working on that)!!!!
Sorry to hear about the headaches. . . . I cannot imagine headaches like that all the time. When I first started chemo I had an allergic reaction to the first chemo drug and had a terrible headache for 3 days and was vomting, etc., ended up in the hospital on morphine - and that was the only time in my life I had a headache of which I would consider "migraine" level and it was horrendous and I can't imagine living with them. I pray for you to feel better :)
Your meals sound fantabulous!!!! Yuuuuuummmmmm!! You should start a frozen food line for BFL!!! That would be really awesome and I would be a steady customer!! If it ain't 10 minute quick - it don't happen for me!
My craving for now is tuna! I can't get enough tuna - now who would think a craving would be tuna???? Boring . . . . .
Dancing Queen if "physical exercise" isn't for you right now - girl just DANCE!!!! Get down, get dirty and DANCE!!! I love to dance!! Dancing is exercise and dancing is fun :) Don't worry about the weights, cardio, etc., for now if it is too much - just keep with the program and do your best for you!
I have had a good week - on program - exercise done! I have 34 more days on this Challenge to go. I have lost 5 pounds so far this time - a little slower again on this Challenge but I think I've lost some inches too, haven't measured yet. I have my the appointment for my bikini photoshoot. I am READY!!! It is my lifestyle now and I'm loving going shopping now whereas before, I didn't want to go to the bigger sizes and shopping wasn't fun. Life is sweet :)
Okay ladies, I have a conference call (yes on Sunday) to be on. Ladies have a Fab-U-Lous day and week ahead. Stay focused and stay in the moment. Love ya - LacyJ
Good morning ladies!!!
You make me laugh Mary!!! Yes... The mango seed has offered hours of weekend "fun" (less the headaches) I'm telling you, hunks hubby looks great. He's 20 lbs down (I wish I were a guy!) and he is getting great definition. And a very abs! Plus he feels great!!!
i am glad I took the time to rest yesterday. I woke up again with excuciaring pain in my head at 1:30 am. Took medicine and tried to rest. Awful... Then laid on my accupuncture mat and meditated until I fell asleep. When I woke up I felt pretty f
Good. So did lower body workout and felt so good o
I threw a cardio in there too! Headache is at bay and I feel really good.
LacyJ- I know what it's like to be so busy and on conference calls on the weekend. I am so happy for you that this is a great lifestyle and that you look fantastic!!!! I bet you exude confidence and sexiness! Can't wait to see the bikini pics!!! Woot woot!!!
I agree with Lacy Mary. Do what you can. Eat the BFL way and just do whatever you can!!!
Have a good weekend!!!!!!
I can see the two of you coated in mango - sexy!
I would love to be able to cook like Shellbells! It sounds good just from the namesf these dishes! Would love to try your cherry rice, girl! I'm with ya, LacyJ - Shellbell Select for BFL! Start shipping to us, SB! Hunka hubby shouldn't be the only one who benefits from your talents!
How awesome that hunka is doing as well as you are. Must make the two of you feel sooooo good! PICTURES, PICTURES!
Great job, LacyJ! BIKINI SHOTS! Can't wait to see those. You have totally earned that look.
I have to keep trying to make exercise a regular part of the routine. One of you is managing on excruciating headaches and the other on chemo. Surely I can get my lazy butt off the couch and do the same. I THINK I CAN, I THINK I CAN ...!
Please please let Shellbells feel better.
Have a peaceful BFL kinda week, my friends.
Hi guys...just thought I would check in before bed time (Tom is checking his fantasy baseball so I have a second!)
I had a GREAT day.....just about headache free...
As you know i have had headaches ALL WEEK and to top it off, I was getter exertion headaches....read about them...sometimes called weight lifters headaches. I almost took myself to the hospital this wee for Morphine (which I have done numerous times in my life). but that is a HUGE investment in time and the morphine kicks my A$$ for several days...not good for exercise. On top of these (probably due to pain) I was a total BEEEOTCH to everyone this week.
So today, after the work out and after the cable man came (our cable went out yesterday), we went to target for protein powder and protein bars. in the parking lot Tom say "lets get out of here and head to the beach". It was about 2:00PM and our favorite beach is about 1.25 hours away in Carpinteria (just a little south of Santa Barbara),....but what the heck. We went !! It was wonderful. We had a two hour walk in the surf......and sat on the rocks just soaking in sun and "just being".......I was headache free and relaxed! We then had dinner at Joe's crab shack overlooking the GORGEOUS ocean and watching the sun set....once home we got in the jacuzzi and relaxed .....what a nice relaxing and perfect impromptu day! Maybe this will end the headaches!!
Mary, The dinner last night wasn't SOOOO bad...but I don't eat white rice, butter or sugar through the week when I'm on program. the lamb kabobs and the tomatoes were perfectly fine. I made my own tzasiki sauce out of Greek yogurt, so it was "legal". The problem with Sour Cherry rice is the following: 1) Its so damn good that we cannot eat it in the proper portion controlled serving (1/2 to 1 cup..? no way), 2) it's made with butter and a syrup made from the cherry juice (lots of sugar), 3) it's white basmati rice......and I only eat whole grain on program. BUT, we both say this would be our last meal if we ever had to pick one. I love the blog called the STEAMY KITCHEN - I use her recipe because the directions are spectacular and the rice is better than in ANY Persian restaurant. The lamb kabob's are from Rachel Ray's recipe because they are so good and healthy I dumped my recipe......if you want the links, I will send them. By the way, your daughter lives in Glendale which has to be the capitol of Armenian and Persian restaurants......I am sure cherry rice is all over in that area. When you come to LA, I will make this for you!!!
Mary - you will get it.....but unfortunately you will probably have to force yourself for a while until it becomes something you really want to do. You will get on board I feel it!!
Hope you are having a great weekend LacyJ!!!
Ok gotta run....Tom is done with Fantasy baseball....lets see if he can come up with another fantasy for me...LOL
WHEW! That is SUCH a relief, SB. I feel like I've been holding my breath waiting for you to be relieved of the headaches. I've only had skull splitting headaches a few times. Flying when the air pressure isn't controlled in the plane can do it. I truly thought my skull would crack. Since then, I found out about Earplanes, ear plugs you can buy in the airport gift shops that equalize the air pressure, and you can still hear with them.
Then there were the days with Temporal Mandibular Joint Syndrome. Even morphine wouldn't touch those headaches, not at all. Fortunately for me, my dentist diagnosed it and gave me stretching exercises to do, and they WORKED. I still use them for tension in my shoulders and for normal types of headaches. Thankfully, the TMJ symdrome never came back. I cannot believe you avoided morphine so that you wouldn't miss exercise. I think you need therapy for that alone, ya crazy a$$ woman! (I can't wait to meet you!)
Tom was very smart to whisk his bride away for some relaxation. Great guy. I'll have to ask Katie if she has ever been to Carpinteria beach. Might be a great place for her and her friends to go. Why do you especially like that beach?
Persian food. Never had it, although I have had many international and ethnic foods. That rice sounds fantastic. Can't wait to try yours. I'll ask Katie if she has been to a Persian restaurant. I think we have had Armenian food.
Okay, my cheerleaders, good news. Wait for it ... Wait for it ...
I WAS ON THE TREADMILL TONIGHT AND EVEN RAN FOUR OR FIVE OF THOSE MINUTES!!!!!!! AND went faster than I have before. Felt so good to final overcome gravity and get back to exercise! Thank you both so much for your support.
Okay, it's back to work for me. Second week of the semester is calling, and it is already 2:20 AM.
KICK BUTT THIS WEEK, MY FRIENDS! Look forward to hearing from you again, including Tom's fantasy of the evening!
You are CRAZY Mary (about as crazy as me) LOL
Boy I would love to know those exercises for TMJ - are they on the internet? I don't have TMJ but they might just help during tension periods for me.
Carpentaria is north and we prefer northern beaches. It's such a cute town....lots of little cool surf shops and antiques. The beach is just wonderful with lots of crabs and shells and we walk all the way down to the end by gorgeous beach front homes. The weather is almost always perfect (we might just be lucky) and you can see Ana Kappa island on good days. I don't know...it's just sort of "our" beach....the drive there is beautiful also and Santa Barbara is close if we wanted to go a bit further, usually we don't.Down south, we love Del Mar.....another cutsie little (but expensive) beach town but it's too far for a 1 day visit. There we have to spend the night. Not bad, but it's just super expensive
I used to spend a whole year on a region in the world and learn to cook that cuisine, I've done Italian, French, Moroccan (awesome), Indian, Chinese, Thai (my favorite), south African (not as extensively). And some middle Eastern. This year is the Year of the baking…bread, rolls, etc….. Im weird…I love good ethnic food and where I live it's Ethnic challenged. Best to make it fresh!
I am SO IMPRESSED with your treadmill workout…didn't you feel good afterward? Don't let it end……Get back on it today……and BTW – don't you think you need more sleep????? 2:20AM????
Have a good one ladies….Today is beginning week 6 for me….ALMOST HALF WAY through first challenge!!
Yes, I believe we are kindred crazy spirits!
Do you do skyping? If so, I can show you how to do the TMJ exercises! Moroccan - is that lots of meat and spices? If so, can it be made vegetarian? I'm a wishy-washy vegetarian. Don't eat meat often, but do once in awhile. I love ethnic food. Good thing you can make your own since you can't get it locally. I can get good Indian and Thai food here, good Italian, fair-to-middlin' Chinese - I think that's it. Ever had Ethiopian food? Oh, those people are masters at spices - mmm mmm mmm.
Ooo, I did need more sleep last night. Only had 3 hours. I am an extreme night person, so I typically sleep late. Today it was necessary to get up early. Groan.
Tomorrow it will be the end of 5 weeks for me. Best thing I ever did for myself.
Gotta get to work preparing for my class tomorrow: Adult development and aging. (Today was Death and Human Behavior - my favorite!)
LacyJ, you still really busy? Hope you are taking care of your immune system, not working too hard. Miss you.
Night SB!
PS: My skyping name is mary.newman.2012
Hey Mary.....
I dont skype, just havent had a reason to I guess.
Moroccan is lots of meat and spices - SUPER GOOD. I would imagine you could make it vegetarian....but the key to the moroccan cuisine are generally long "roasting" and simmering times to get everything to really meld. The meat is generally fish (one morraccan recipe for fish is devine), lamb, chicken with many spices; - they use preseved lemon and alot of olives also. I imagine there is vegetarian stuff...I just havent noticed before.....
Oooo. Ethiopian....I would love to learn that too! there is a restaurant in LA that is supposed to be fantastic but I never like to drive anywhere much. SO MUCH ethnic food in LA but it's a lot with traffic to get there.
Good for you! so you are starting week 6 like me! YAY. I did my workout (upper body) yesterday evening and boy and I sore this morning.....that's good. Unfortunately my arthritic fingers are very sore all the time from lifting the weights..... but everything else is coming togehter. today? Cardio! and I plan to "up the instensity" to the highest level yet this challenge.....ill let you know how it works out.
Your class sounds fasinating....are you teaching at a college?
LacyJ - we know youre busy, but we miss you!!
Have a good day ladies!
Hi ShellBells,
Skyping is easy. Just go to skype.com and sign up. It's free! Then I could show you the headache/tension exercise.
Maybe one day when you have to go into LA for something else, you could build in a trip to the Ethiopian restaurant. Well worth the effort!
Have you tried glucosamine/chondroiitin? I have very very little trouble with arthritis since I started taking that.
Sorry - you must have missed a message from me because I did tell you about teaching college. And you didn't mention the shunt question. Or maybe you just forgot - busy crazy people will do that, you know! Anyway, here is that message just in case:
I am a college professor of psychology at Missouri State University. I specialize in successful aging and age-related disorders, and also in death, dying and grieving. But you are right - the studying and learning never stops in order to keep up!
A funny story:
I have been "upping" my workouts/weights buy a lot In the last 10 days. I can really feel the difference and I have been soooo sore. Monday's workout was tough. I was sore yesterday, but this morning when I woke up, I was soooo very sore. I was straightening my arm and both biceps and triceps felt hard, ya know? So I asked my husband to rub my triceps because they had little knots. As he starts rubbing he starts to laugh! He says "honey, you don't have little knots, you have gorgeous little bulging muscles! That's what you are working so hard for!". Then we started laughing and have been laughing kind of all day. I am happy that it's really showing. But they feel kind of " big". Lol!
Sorry Mary! Your right. I missed that post! Awesome job you have. And a very interesting subject! I would love to be in your class. I would love to know about successful aging !!!!
A shunt is an option, but it's the last option because diuretics work great and keep the fluid in check. If they stop working someday then a shunt would be an answer.
I could just go buy a wedge when I am in NY but I never do. It's laziness really and stupid. So I feel like crap for a week like a dumba$$.
Yes tried the gluclosamine combos and saw little to no affect. I feel like the only person it hasn't worked for!

Sometimes when you put a straightedge over the frets the frets tell you something different. Since I've been using this Notched Straightedge it has helped me with numerous fret jobs because IT TELLS YOU WHAT THE FINGERBOARD IS DOING. Love it.
Just a note to inform that the notched straight edge does not work for some archtops that have longer scales. Measure first and check the fine print.
I've been thinking of buying this tool for sometime but didn't know if the cost would justify it. Besides, I've always been happy with my straightedge that I've used for years.
I decided to take the plunge and guess what? My straightedge is collecting dust!!!
This has helped to set up guitars without the worry if one fret is a tad high? Just place on the board and adjust truss rod and there you go, spot on.
First, it is indeed as close to exactly flat as is possible.
Second, it's thick enough you can put it on the fingerboard on edge hands-off and adjust the truss rod to get the fingerboard flat.
Very very usable tool.
This tool is a time saver and time is money in the repair biz... I found the notched Straightedge so usually in helping to speed up set ups as well as fret leveling and fret board repair. The first day I had this tool in the shop it more the doubled the amount I had invested in it. This tool is a must have if your serious about proper guitar repair.
With this tool I can work on any neck whether that might be an action adjustment or fret replacement in a fast and precise manner.

News reports published Monday reveal that over the past two years, Israel has been in constant semi-official contact with Palestinian politician Marwan Barghouti who is serving five life sentences for involvement in terror activities.
Barghouti was arrested in April 2002 after being the leader of the Tanzim terror faction of the Fatah movement which perpetrated numerous terror attacks against Israel during the second Intifada. Among Palestinians Barghouti is considered a leader within the Fatah faction and holds quite a lot of influence on all parts of the Palestinian political map.
According to the reports, the contacts were conducted by Knesset Member Chaim Oron from Meretz, and at the full authorization of both former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, and current Prime Minister Ehud Olmert. During these contacts, MK Oron passed political messages from the Israeli political echelon to Barghouti, and vice versa.
Apparently, these contacts were instrumental in reaching the current ceasefire, as Barghouti was able to influence the different Palestinian factions to reach an agreement with President Abbas to stop the rocket fire on Israel.
In addition, Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni also met with Barghouti more than a year ago when she served as Justice Minister under the previous government. Livni was touring the prison where Barghouti is serving his sentence, when she met him in a seemingly unexpected manner. The conversation between the two was short, and the content of the conversation is unknown.

Weighty Matters InfoWeighty Matters used to be just a chronicle of my weight loss efforts, which was extremely frustrating because I couldn't maintain it--both the blog and the weight loss thing. So instead, I have transformed my thinking (and this blog) so that it will not only deal with weight loss but also with all important health issues that we face. This is now my journal not just to lose weight but to keep it and to maintain good health. Hence, the name of this blog still applies. After all, all health issues are weighty matters.

ANNAPOLIS, MD (January 18, 2012) – Governor Martin O'Malley today delivered the keynote address to members of the Tech Council of Maryland at the group's annual Leadership Dinner. In his remarks, Governor O'Malley previewed a new Administration initiative that seeks to further technology transfer in partnership with Maryland's universities.
The Tech Council of Maryland is Maryland's largest technology trade organization, representing 250,000 people in the greater Maryland region. The Council previously named Governor O'Malley its 2010 "Advocate of the Year" and successfully nominated the Governor for the Biotechnology Industry Organization's (BIO) Governor of the Year in 2010.
Excerpts from the Governor's speech are highlighted below.
Modern Investments - Education and Innovation:
· Job creation in an Innovation Economy, requires leveraging our most important asset: the talents, skills, ingenuity and creativity of our people.
· Our proposed budget for FY2013 is a jobs-budget which does more for job creation than any in our State's recent history.
· With your help, we will protect the progress we've made together on a number of our other shared priorities like the Biotech Tax Credit and the R&D credit. And with a proposed $10.4 million investment in Stem Cell Research, we will raise our six-year total to nearly $102 million.
· On education, we propose a record $5 billion in operating funding for our #1 ranked public schools, as well as a $373 million capital investment to support 11,600 jobs through school construction. For higher education, we want to invest $289 in our community and four-year colleges and universities.
· Through initiatives like the STEM Innovation Network, we're bringing together the business community, educators, government, higher education, non-profits and other stakeholders – setting up STEM teachers with mentors from industries like biotech, cyber security, and green technology.
Modern Investments – Infrastructure:
Today, 106 of our bridges are structurally deficient. Meanwhile, over the past three decades, our land consumption has increased by 154%, at a time when our population has grown by 39%. Over the next twenty-five years, we're expected to grow by a million more. The infrastructure which supports this growth is not free; and in fact, it's becoming increasingly more expensive to build and maintain.
It actually cost us more to paint the first span of the Bay Bridge than it did to build it in the 1950s. We cannot eat cake and lose weight. We cannot build a $90 million bridge for $10 million. Bridges are not like trees. They do not grow stronger with age.
If we neglect transportation, we end up paying in so many other ways. And so this session we will be asking the people of our State to help us move forward in this regard. But we can't do it alone.
Crossing the Delta of Opportunity:
Working together with the business community, we've launched an initiative called Maryland Made Easy to cut down on red tape so businesses can spend more time creating jobs, and less time doing paperwork. This session we will be asking the General Assembly to either repeal or reform more than 100 state regulations, so that together we can accelerate job creation and make our State an easier place to do business.
Another issue that you and I have discussed together is how we can cross the delta of opportunity which exists between the research dollars flowing into our state, and our ability to commercialize this research into new jobs, opportunity and economic growth.
The fact of the matter is that we rank #1 in research and development per capita but only 37th in commercialization of that research into the new jobs of the new economy.
Last year, to cross this delta, you helped us create InvestMaryland. The first tax credit auction is scheduled to take place in March, with new venture funding available to companies this summer.
This year, we will seek to further technology transfer – and build upon some groundbreaking actions currently underway at Johns Hopkins and our state universities. Our goal is to get dozens of technologies out of the labs and into the marketplace within this next year – and in the coming weeks we'll be sharing an announcement with you on a new proposal. Stay tuned, as they say.

LINCOLN — With so many moving pieces, the triple jump is an event where lots of things can go wrong, and Nebraska's Ellie Ewere had found most of them in her career.
But the smile on her face after uncorking a career-best leap Saturday was evidence she has started to figure things out. The junior from Hillsborough, N.J., jumped 41 feet, 10� inches to win the event at the Mark Colligan Memorial at the Devaney Center, a jump that ranks second in the Big Ten this season.
"Ellie has really worked hard this year and has had a lot better attitude and is starting to understand the event some," said NU coach Gary Pepin, who instructs the Husker jumpers. "We've worked hard mainly on just basics. She's tried to make a better attempt at learning the event and really doing things right. As a result, she's doing things well, and I think she can jump a lot better than what she's even doing now."
Ewere, whose previous career best of 41-� came last weekend, said she came into this season with a better attitude toward film study of practice sessions and has become more disciplined in holding out each of the phases of her leap.
"Now, I understand triple jump a lot better than I have in the past," Ewere said. "I understand what each phase means and why I need to be on time with my jump. I think understanding what you're doing helps you get better."
Ewere's winning jump was one of several career-best marks for the Husker women Saturday. Sophomore Paula Andrie cleared 13 feet, 3� inches in the pole vault, breaking her old mark of 12-11� when she finished fifth at last year's Big Ten indoor championships. Andrie's vault Saturday was the second-best in the Big Ten this season and good for No. 9 on the Huskers' all-time indoor charts.
Freshman Jazmin McCoy took home the title in the long jump with a leap of 19-7, and for the second week in a row, Carlie Pinkelman set a personal record in the women's shot put. The junior from Cozad, Neb., won the event with a toss of 52-1�, the third-best throw in the Big Ten this season.
All-Big Ten sprinter Mara Weekes won a pair of individual titles in the 60 meters (7.55 seconds) and 200 (24.44), while also running on NU's winning 4x400 relay (3:44.83).
As for the Husker men, Pepin said he was most pleased with performances that showed NU's emerging depth in several events.
"We had an awful lot of events in which we showed not only some quality, but we showed balance and some depth," he said. "This is one of the better dual meet teams we've ever had."
Cody Rush paced a 1-2-3 finish for the Huskers in the 400 with a career-best time of 47.12 — the second-fastest mark in the Big Ten this year and good for sixth on Nebraska's all-time list.
The sophomore from Grand Island Northwest credited an offseason weight regimen for boosting his lower-body strength and allowing him to smash his old best time of 48.25.
"I just got that big, strong base from this summer," Rush said. "I didn't do a whole lot except lift. Through the fall, we just worked on the speed and the strength. My teammates were here to push me hard every day."
Husker men finished 1-2 in the pole vault with Christian Sanderfer and Craig Driver each notching a mark of 16-10�. All-American Chad Wright won the shot put in his season debut with a throw of 62-�, followed by teammate Will Lohman at 59-�. The Huskers also swept the top three spots in the triple jump, won by Devandrew Johnson at 50-6�.
With Big Ten champion Patrick Raedler sitting out the long jump Saturday, senior Seth Wiedel kept NU from missing a beat. Wiedel, from Hebron, Neb., won the men's long jump by leaping 24-5�, the 12th-best mark in the country this season.
Senior Travis Englund also easily surpassed his career best in the high jump with a winning leap of 6-11�, bettering his previous top mark by almost four inches.
